PW - I Stand


I Stand for You

When terror grips you,

and the fabric of civility tears,

I stand for you.


On foreign soil,

where peace is but a whispered hope,

I stand for you.


As bullets fly like bees,

and hateful bombs explode

Threatening to steal my sanity – I stand for you.

I carry broken bodies back to be mended, and

No matter how hard I try – The tears fall like rain,

and still through all the pain,

I stand for you.

That is until I fall, and I wonder,

as I lay cold and Still...Will you remember,

and stand for me?
